Today in takeover rumors: Eater reports that Bar Artisanal Restaurant and Tapas Bar (Terrance Brennan’s short-lived attempt to re-brand the year-old Artisanal spinoff Bar Artisanal) has closed (a message promises a reopening and new location). Rumor has it that Todd English is taking over the space, though one of English’s reps told us she had no information.

Meanwhile, Fork in the Road hears that Top Chef alum Harold Dieterle of Perilla was seen going into the shuttered Philippe Chow Express space. Dieterle is indeed working on a project, but won’t comment on its location. And finally, wd~50 pastry chef Alex Stupak divests Eater of a rumor that he’s planning to open something in the old Cosmic Cantina space.
